How clients of the 9 Enneagram types perceive coaches and coaching

Coaching and the Enneagram

Coaching has been the fastest-growing human resource profession for more than three decades, and people from a variety of occupations list themselves as coaches – human resource specialists, coaches with certification or on-the-job experience, managers, trainers, psychologists, social workers, teachers, and organizational consultants. Coaching is now the premier talent development method for personal and professional growth because it targets the specific development needs of each individual, and coaches are increasingly using the Enneagram.

The Enneagram’s coaching application makes a dramatic difference in coaching because it allows coaches to identify the client’s coaching needs quickly, enables clients to do a great deal of growth on their own, and provides specific development paths and activities for clients based on Enneagram type. Coaching thus goes faster, deeper, and has longer-lasting results.
